A little bit about me

With a background as a preschool teacher and Assistant Director at a respected preschool in downtown Austin, I bring a thoughtful, developmentally focused approach to childcare. I have extensive experience caring for newborns through adolescence, overnight newborn care, infant & toddler development, and supporting school-aged children & teens. My work with private families & estates has allowed me to provide personalized care while also assisting with household management & adapting to each family's unique needs.
I believe in building genuine connections with children by understanding their individual personalities & recognizing the many ways they communicate. Drawing from my Montessori background, I create child-led, engaging environments that encourage curiosity, independence, resilience & confidence. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing space where children feel seen, supported & empowered to grow while giving families dependable, compassionate support they can trust.
